Inivitation: Social Impact Fund Webinar

The Provincial Treasury of the Western Cape is excited to announce an upcoming webinar designed to explore the transformative potential of Social Impact Outcome Funds, delve into social impact bonds, and examine pay-for-success models. This event will take place on June 3, 2024, and is open to all interested parties.

This innovative webinar aims to foster in-depth discussions around four case studies of such funds implemented in South Africa. By dissecting these examples, participants will gain valuable insights into the practical applications and benefits of these funding models. Furthermore, the webinar will address how the Western Cape Government can enable and pursue these innovative financing solutions, highlighting the province's leading role in this dynamic field.

We are thrilled to bring together a panel of experts who will share their extensive knowledge and experiences with social impact investing. They are personally involved in designing and implementing outcome funds and SIBs in South Africa and are looking to see how municipal and provincial government can enable and utilise these mechanisms more. This webinar represents a significant step forward in our commitment to advancing social impact initiatives within the Western Cape. We encourage active participation to ensure a rich and robust engagement.

Our top-tier experts will lead the conversations, ensuring that attendees will receive the most current and comprehensive information on the subject. Participants are encouraged to register promptly to gain access to specially prepared pre-reading materials, which will enrich the discussion and enhance understanding.
